Side Scan Sonar Integrations

The easiest all-in-one solution to integrate our products with side scans.
A single 10m tow cable is terminated with everything you need. No modifications to your magnetometer or gradiometer are required. Simply swap out your tow cable for the integration cable and you are ready to go. Best of all, your accessories, including power supply, are still compatible. The integration maintains the basic system integrity of each product, ensuring that they can both run independently as well as together.
What Does The Integration Cable Consist Of?

output power to a maximum of 10W, ensuring that no damage will occur to the mag/grad or side scan ift he contacts in the integration cable are inadvertently shorted.

Even though the side scan can supply the integration cable with as much as 250VDC, the integration cable never carries more than a safe 24VDC.

We have integrated with

A er numerous sea trials with side scan manufacturers we found that 10m was an optimum length for the retrieval process. Shorter distances placed the mag at risk of smashing up against the survey vessel when the side scan was winched in. Should you require a shorter or longer cable length, we will meet your requirement.

We have found them to be reliable and user friendly. Our clients have been pleased with the resultant data as well. We appreciate your assistance in maintaining our units, and rushing parts to us on those occasions where we have needed them. Ewan Cumming Fugro Jacques GeoSurvey

e digital data output from SeaSPY and SeaQuest is sent to a data input port on the side scan unit. e side scans telemetry is then used to relay the magnetometer data to the surface, where it is then decoded from the side scan data stream and can be viewed using our SeaLINK so ware on your PC.

SeaSPY and SeaQuest are ideal to integrate for 4 reasons:


Ultra low power requirements Unmatched deep tow capabilities Worldwide operation without any restrictions no dead zones Their sleek design ensures the towing stability of the side scan is not compromised
SeaSPY, the product we launched over 10 years ago, was designed to pick up
where traditional marine magnetometers left off. Initial research and our sales since then tell the same story: surveyors want a mag they can rely on. SeaSPYs mandate was to help surveyors save time, money, and energy by taking the realities of working in the field into account.

SeaQuest is the only gradiometer platform able to measure gradients in all


three axes simultaneously, accurately and in real time. It is your best chance for finding the proverbial needle in a haystack. SeaQuest suppresses background geology, rendering small man-made objects identifiable. The platform is expandable from 2 to 10 sensors.
